        For some reason that post does show up for me, but I can’t vote on it, because “it’s been removed”. The crosspost offers a 400 error. Really weird.

              Sometimes cross-instance links might not work as intended, no idea why.

      He would get blocked there because BlueSky will comply with legal requests as well, because if they don’t they will face criminal charges and/or massive fines. BlueSky, being a platform that loves censorship, would not challenge the legal order in court like X are either.

      Even fediverse instance owners would be forced to block his accounts under threat of fines and/or prosecution.

      edit: BlueSky have already blocked his account lol

        if they don’t they will face criminal charges

        The Turkish government does not have the authority to enforce criminal charges on an American person/company.

        Even fediverse instance owners would be forced to block his accounts under threat of fines and/or prosecution.

        Only if the instance owners/servers were in Turkey.
